JJ Takes BOB And Group 2 At Westminster 2022

On our way home already … so overcome with emotions… proud of JJ, Megan HofJordan Moore, and Patti Sneed More for all your hard work… What a dream come true. We thank everyone so much for the wonderful support for Team JJ from all our friends and family. Second year in a row he won WESTMINSTER BEST OF BREED and then made the Cut in the Herding Group, but this is the FIRST time ever placing with a WESTMINSTER HERDING GROUP TWO‼️ What a great trip‼️ When Rick was watching JJ in the Best of Breed ring in New York, I was watching on my iPhone from Michigan. I told him, ”If JJ wins BOB, I am going to fly in and join the Team to watch groups.” Thanks to Mike & Roseann Bills for dog sitting our pack. We know that was a huge imposition. You are both a fantastic physical and emotional supportive part of Team JJ.

Thank you also to this year’s breed judge Mr. Tom Coen and Group judge Mrs. Sharon Redmer. Thank you also to the Westminster Kennel Club and Superintendents MBF for an amazing 146th Westminster Dog Show.
